The Old DH track is a classic trail that is fun to ride. Don't expect a steep descent with big jumps though. It is a trail that can be enjoyed even with a XC bike. Fun flowing & a few small jumps to leap off. This trail is often ridden in both directions so ride in control.

This trail is unsanctioned.

      		There is a poorly placed jump at the start of the trail. Watch out for the hole to the left.
